Descripción

One summer morning in 2014, a 28-year-old German tourist walked into Varna Airport in Bulgaria. Moments later, he suddenly dropped his luggage, sprinted out of the terminal, climbed a fence, and vanished into the surrounding countryside. His name was Lars Mittank. What happened next became one of the most baffling missing-person cases in modern history. In this episode of True Crime For Bedtime, we follow Lars's final known movements—from a holiday dispute and a mysterious head injury to his increasingly fearful behaviour in the days before he disappeared. Was he suffering from paranoia? Was he frightened of someone? Or did something far more sinister happen after he ran from the airport? More than a decade later, the grainy airport footage remains the last confirmed sighting of Lars Mittank. Settle in, relax, and join me as we explore one of Europe's most enduring mysteries.

She Answered a Babysitting Ad... Then Vanished Forever | The Margaret Ellen Fox Mystery

Quick note: Due to feedback, I'm testing a slightly different narration style in this episode. I'd love your feedback in the poll below as I continue improving the show. Tonight, we explore one of the most unsettling missing person cases ever recorded. In April 1974, 14-year-old Margaret Ellen Fox left her New Jersey home after answering a babysitting advertisement. She never returned. What began as an ordinary afternoon quickly became every parent's worst nightmare. Days later, a chilling phone call suggested Margaret had been kidnapped. Yet despite a massive investigation, countless leads, and decades of searching, the truth behind her disappearance remains a mystery. So settle in, relax, and let the rain and distant thunder carry you into tonight's story. This episode includes gentle rain and thunderstorm ambience designed to help you unwind while listening. True Crime For Bedtime is a relaxing true crime podcast featuring mysterious disappearances, unsolved cases, and fascinating real-life investigations told in a calm, immersive style. If you enjoy bedtime stories, unsolved mysteries, cold cases, missing persons investigations, and atmospheric true crime, be sure to follow the podcast for new episodes.
